Recommendations

This course is a result of collaborating with the Culinary Arts & Hawaiian Studies programs under the “Ho‘olaule‘a” program umbrella. Hawai‘i is a gathering place where food, entertainment and hospitality are shared and this course introduces participants to celebrating Hawaiian style, or Ho‘olaule‘a. During this program series, participants will learn the history of Hawai‘i, gain further respect for the land and cultural practices, and appreciate more community engagement through “celebration”. Participants will learn the basics of menu planning, food preparation, kitchen safety and sanitation, cooking skills and so much more. The assessment will include participants planning, organizing and executing a celebration, Hawaiian style.
